We missed the action, but when we arrived at Table 3, Eric Froehlich was all in with two red sevens in front of him. His opponent had

The dealer washed the cards quickly, so we couldn't capture the rest of the board, and Froehlich hit the exit.

Phil Ivey and Phil Hellmuth have been the talk of the WSOP so far. Several days ago both Phils made a final table and were gunning for a bracelet at different feature tables.
Just several hours ago both Phils were competing against each other for a bracelet in the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship Event. There are seated together today and one will have to go through the other to advance.
We all know that Antonio Esfandiari and Phil Laak love to play "Johnny Lodden Thinks" - a bidding game wherein an independent, third party picks a number, and two or more players bid until one player has the under, and the other players have the over.
Esfandiari is currently playing Lodden Thinks with his tablemates Chris Klodnicki and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, and they asked another player at the table to set a line for the following scenario.
"What are the chances of success, from 1-100%, of myself, Klodnicki, and ElkY robbing a bank?" he asked. "We have a full year to prepare, we have to remove at least one item from the vault, and we can never be caught."
The player thought of a percentage, and the bidding began. Grospellier bought 18% and under, leaving Klodnicki and Esfandiari with 19% and over.
"Do you want more action?" Esfandiari asked Grospellier. "I'll lay you $1,100:$1,000."
Grospellier refused, and the player gave his number: "Eighty-eight percent. There's no way you guys couldn't rob a bank."
The entire table erupted with laughter.
"I think we're slight favorites," Esfandiari admitted when the laughter died down.
Just 25 seats remain unsold in the event. Players have about 30 minutes to register - registration closes at the start of Level 3.
WSOPTD Jack Effel 25 seats available for today's shootout. We will close registration at start of level three (30 min to go) or when these 25 seats are sold.

There's a weird dynamic today in the field. Some tables are stone serious and are playing in silence. While other tables can be heard from across the room.
Antonio Esfandiari is busy entertaining his table with absurd prop bet situations, Dwyte Pilgrim can be heard laughing from clear across the room and Shane Schleger and Jonthan Duhamel are talking.
The normally entertaining Daniel Negreanu is playing a pretty quiet game at the moment and Scott Clements is spending most of his attention on his laptop.
Some players have just taken their seat.

Nick Schulman opened to 225 in early position, a player in front of the button three-bet to 600, and Schulman four-bet to 1,650. His opponent called, and the dealer fanned 
. Schulman led for 1,100, and his opponent called.
Both players knuckled after the 
turned, and the 
completed the board. Schulman check-called a 3,000-chip bet, and his opponent tabled 
.
Schulman mucked, but thanks to an earlier pot, still has over 10,000 chips. Sean Getzwiller is missing from the table, while Steve Billirakis has a very large, 25,000-chip stack.
